How bout a nice jewie cutlet? Only ever caught one decent size one,well not even what you'd call a decent one I spose.Can't even remember what the weight came to but on the little 4 kilo rod I was throwing lures at tailor with off the rocks it was pretty good at the time.Anyway,the cutlets were bloody fantastic.

Read this one a bit late, shocked to see no mention of gar or tommy's.

Much prefer fish from the ocean than from the estuaries, where they seem to get a weedy taste.

Don't have a particular favourite. Have no trouble getting the family to eat snapper, bonito, bream, flathead and whiting. Am really keen to offer them kingfish (had some fantastic kingfish in japanese restaurants) and jewfish. Hear morwong is good too.

Come on guys

Why has no-one mentioned the mighty REDFIN yet?

It would definitely rate in my top 3 - whiting and flatties up there also. But I think I would almost go some redfin over a flattie tail.

Yeah, redfin can be damn good eating.
Swish go the thighs boys swish swish swish,
His legs may be huge but his yak's movin' quick.
The paddler strains and heaves but is beaten by a mile,
While the paddler catches up the swisher fishes for a while

Haven't been fortunate enough to try redfin tim. Typical trip up the river for me results in carp and the occassional callop.

I love the triffecta trio flathead, bream and whiting great to eat, but the best fish i have ever had would be SALT water barrmundi absolutley superb. But really any white fleshed reef fish is generally some pretty damn good eating.

For some god unknown reason my father loves MULLET he's a sick man.

Red Throat Emporer is probably my favourite, but am expanding my horizons as I move up north, so this may change in the future :)

JustCruisin - Fresh mullet is actually really tasty! Very underrated fish... Damn good bait too!!!! :D
